Apparently there's a title change tonight on Raw!

My bet is Ambrose

Yeah, it seems to be the likely one. I'd go with that or the Divas title; Cameron gets a rematch after last night's cluster######, Tamina gets banned from ringside, Cameron wins.

Jesus, didn't Vince think to buy some damn servers & bandwidth before launching this "network"? Seems all that's on that page is "Media Error: Video not available"

 

They are using MLB's existing service for both, and signups. MLB Advanced Media. They couldn't handle it. I'm sure Vince is ######. 

Its running fine on my end now, has been for a few hours.

Well, the signup didn't work for me for many hours, now browsing through the site works, but absolutely no video shows up, only that error... Damn...

Hello,

Shield vs. Wyatts is probably the closest we'll ever see to a 5* match in WWE this year. Just give them the bloody Slammy Award now.

It was great but Bray vs Bryan was better.

That being said, Shield vs Wyatts was Wrestlemania material.

UPDATE: WWE Network Back On Track After Opening-Day Technical Problems

 

UPDATE, 1:01 PM: People who want to subscribe to WWE Network should be able to do so now that the company?s technology partner, Major League Baseball Advanced Media, has worked through the launch-day crush. Demand for subscriptions ?exceeded anything we have seen in 14 years of doing e-commerce,? MLBAM says.

PREVIOUS, 11:35 AM: The new $9.99-a-month online video network has been ?unable to process most orders since 9 AM,? the WWE says. It attributes the launch-day woes to its technology partner Major League Baseball Advanced Media (MLBAM). It was ?overwhelmed? by the demand for subscriptions and ?has been working aggressively to resolve this issue.? WWE shares are down about 1.7% on a day when the overall market is up about 1%. It has a lot riding on the initiative. The company unveiled its online plans at the International CES electronics show in January. Expectations that the global Internet channel will be a hit with fans helped to drive a 46% increase in WWE?s market value so far in 2014, and recently hit record highs. CFO George Barrios told analysts last week that the network could attract as many as 3M subscribers and become a ?major source of future earnings growth? with as much as $150M a year in cash flow. The company expects to serve the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Hong Kong and the Nordic countries by early 2015.

 

 

basically their servers crashed this morning, as if anyone was expecting it not to have any tech issues the day it goes live.

To go a little off-topic with this WWE Network stuff, here's some more of Vince's "genius" :rolleyes: : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiLjDD_RvIo

 

P.S. I agree with that guys on the comments, about the nWo being inducted in the HOF, I think they'll have the same chance Savage has. And if Savage gets inducted, it means these guys have to die too to get there...

    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Uhm, that's every business ever, though. It doesn't matter if a bajillion users are using it. As long as it's not making bank, it's probably headed for the graveyard.

      Samsung is the new Google... they don't care if millions of people are using it.
    • Steam Next Fest returns with thousands of new demos to try out

      Still no word on Tides of Annihilation...... so weird that it wasn't shown at the big Game Fest. Guess I'll put it in the bin like Judas and Squadron 42.
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions by David Uzondu Samsung has announced that it is shutting down Samsung Max, its VPN service used by more than 50 million people, effective today. Samsung Max VPN, if you don't know, was an Android app born on February 23, 2018, out of the ashes of Opera Max, a very popular data-saving VPN that Opera had discontinued the previous year. Samsung bought the discontinued service, rebranded it, and added a native Samsung UI to fit the Galaxy ecosystem. The app could do things like compress images, help you manage background data on a per-app basis, reduce video data consumption, shrink music files, optimize webpages, block advertisement trackers in incognito mode, and encrypt your internet traffic on public Wi-Fi networks. Image via SammyGuru If you open the app now, you'd be greeted by a shutdown banner warning that all VPN, data saving, and privacy services stopped functioning on June 15, 2026. The creators failed to provide a reason for the shutdown, instead publishing a farewell note that read: "Thank you for being with us over the years. Your support and activity truly meant a lot to us and helped shape this app into what it became." This same message appears on the Google Play Store listing for the app as well. Max VPN is the latest service from Samsung to join the list of discontinued applications from the company. Just two months ago, the Korean tech giant announced that it is completely shutting down Samsung Messages, forcing millions of users to migrate to Google Messages by next month. The only devices that the shutdown won't affect are older smartphones running Android 11 or lower. Some of the features of Google Messages that Samsung hopes will entice users include AI-powered scam detection to block suspicious links, integrated Gemini AI tools to generate quick replies, custom chat bubbles, and universal RCS compatibility for sharing high-quality media with iOS users. The platform also offers seamless syncing across tablets and smartwatches. In addition to that, users gain access to message scheduling, smart classification, and automated category sorting.
